We never wore helmets, drinked water out of the garden hose after our dogs got their drink and played army with real looking guns. I remember a good friend of mine and me would go with his dad out to a bridge and throw cans in the water and shot at them with pistols. His dad had a gun rack in his pickup with loaded rifles on it. My mom used butter and kept a tub of bacon grease in the fridge and she would cook a lot of food with it.
